You told the OP to know their state laws, so yes that state law would actually pertain to your advice. I would think that if you're telling the OP it's important to get accurate information, including that information should matter to you, yes.
Did I imply that I was trying to invalidate what you said? If anything, I was just augmenting it.
And now that you ask, actually, knowing what the law says really doesn't have much use in answering OP's question--obviously, the car isn't supposed to be in the crosswalk regardless, and the law isn't going to affect whether or not it's safe to go around the car.
